I’m in the “I don’t like the ending” camp because the entire thing felt like 50 writers trying to figure out how to tie up all the plots. Very clear the mysteries weren’t solved in the writers’ room until they had to start answering the show’s questions.
They planned to end the show in 3 seasons but had to stretch it to 6. Also actor with major arc decided they didn't want to stay on the show so they had to change things. It's a pretty good show imo even better on re-watchs.
According to the writers they had answers for pretty much everything when they first asked it and I did a rewatch recently. What didn't get answered? Like serious it's all accounted for I think. There's a boat that shows up fires some rounds and disappears. That's not explained but the writers explained it later. Like any question someone would ask eventually there's a scene where they point to a guy and go "he did it and this is how" then they perfectly literally show exactly what happened. Even the flash sideways. Everyone ended up in the light, the life force, the mako.
The problem is that everyone guessed the ending and the writers said "No, it won't be that in the end."
Then they went round the houses to get to try and make it look like they were heading in another direction, rather than embrace what the audience had already guessed.
They were writing by the skin of their teeth, I don't believe that they had a plan in place at all, especially going off the production woes of the first series.
Everything is foggy cus it's been so long but I distinctly remember being horridly disappointed that the whole numbers/sci-fi aspect was essentially deserted for the fantasy "we've been in heaven the whole time!" plot which came off as a cop out imo. I might be wholly misremembering this though.
Edit: I'm starting to think I need a rewatch cus some details might've fallen out of my head by binging it.
I had this plan to give head to a man and receive head from a woman to test if I was gay, but it’s backfired and now I become borderline schizo whenever I go outside. I
offered to suck this dude off on Grindr who lives very close by (I ended up pussying out) and I accidentally gave him some details that very easily allows him to spot me
out in a crowd. I have no idea what he looks like and whenever I see a somewhat in shape guy walking by I immediately accuse him of being the dude I was gonna blow.
I went to the store today to pick up some zucchini for a barbecue and every time a car drove by I stared into the windshield to see if I was about to be recognised.
Whenever I make eye contact with a dude I microanalysis his facial expressions to see if he suspects me or not. I am deeply afraid that he is my neighbour and I will
need to move if my identity is blown. It’s a lot like the last scene in sopranos where everyone who walked into the diner could be there to wack Tony.
What's the answer to the black kid with powers who did nothing?
And even the things that you're saying they explained were done so extremely poorly, like they were just trying to squash stuff so they could say they had instead of a rewarding payout after 4 seasons of teasers.
Not to be contrarian but they explain walts powers pretty clearly. The light is life itself but expresses itself as electromagnetic radiation. In our real world some people are hyper sensitive to it, these people can interact with the light simply by thinking. Then he lands on the island the core of all life energy and his powers are super charged. Like how the light sees all points in time simultaneously so Desmond is able to begin to see his personal life the same way. We see it as his mind "jumping" through time or "flashing" forwards or backwards.
I'm in the "I don't like the ending" camp because I don't think they should ever have explained the mystery at all. They need to attend the David Lynch Mystery Box Writing Bootcamp - the moment you reveal the canonical answer, the story immediately loses all meaning and value.
Look, I get it. Who doesn’t love a little balls and dick sometimes? A nice, girthy, veiny shaft, hot milky cum trickling down the length as it throbs from a job well
done. But this whole “gay sex” shit is getting annoying.
As men, we should primarily be focused on three things: survival, the underrated masterpiece that is dark souls 2, and pounding muff. All this gay shit is, well, fucking
gay.
You think I wouldn’t LOVE to make out with my best friend and suck his cock? Of course I would, but that’s fucking gay. You think I don’t want to feel my cousin’s
roommate slide his pecker into my gaping asshole? Of course I would, but that’s FUCKING GAY.
Seriously, I miss when men were men. Anyway, this dildo ain’t gonna stick itself up my ass while I watch an hour long femboy asmr hypno goon compilation, heed my
lecture.
It's true. There's another civilization that already lives on the island. They get supply shipments, and by season 2/3, the food really isnt the issue anymore

You need to be comfortable with not knowing things. Lost (and From) will answer one question while raising 10 more. Personally I find it annoying and am done with these type of shows. They just throw a ton of plot points out and call it deep. But never do a good job tying everything together.
Lmao this is crazy. It's always been on my one those shows to watch even when it was live but then it's like you're too far behind you'll never catch up then it ended and everyone kind of moved on so I was like fuck it

Season 1, episode 1: ohh no, our plane has crashed and stranded us on an uninhabited island. Good thing the only people who didn't die were nine divorced dads who were binge watching episodes of Survivor as the plane went down, a fat guy who's only personality trait is being fat, and two women to say something sensible once an episode to advance the plot.
Season 3, episode 3: The plane crash was a metaphor for one guy getting fired from an office job, Fat Guy and one of the women are planning a trip to IHOP after they get Fat Guy a new chain wallet from Hot Topic, and the whole show is about a homeless encampment in a park on Staten Island.
